Issue a credit note
A finalized invoice can’t be quietly changed, and that’s what keeps it a proper record. When you need to cancel or correct one, you issue a credit note (Gutschrift) against it.
Create one
- Open the finalized invoice you need to cancel or correct.
- Choose to create a credit note from it.
- Check the amounts: a credit note reverses the invoice it refers to.
- Generate the credit-note PDF and send it to your client.
Good to know
- A credit note is its own document, clearly marked as a Gutschrift, and it points back at the original invoice.
- To bill a corrected amount, issue the credit note and then create a fresh invoice for the right figure.
